The sacred bone burner is found within the Crypt of the Moon in the Forthos Dungeon. In order to use it, players must first reach the crypt by using the temple coin (obtained by either killing the Shaeded Beast or giving five dragonstones to Olbertus) on the Stone Relief in the room through the north wall of the crypt. The crypt contains a lever that permanently opens the southern gate leading to the red dragons, allowing easier access in the future.

Players may offer bones or demonic ashes at the burner for 300% Prayer experience, provided their faith level is sufficient. While bones or ashes of any type can be offered at the burner for increased experience, this is mainly only useful for any dragon and babydragon bones obtained from the nearby red and baby red dragons, respectively.

Zealot's robes do not save remains during this activity, and the long walk and reduced experience compared to other methods available make this an unpopular training method. As a comparison, a gilded altar with two incense burners lit increases the experience to 350% per remain and allows for the use of Zealot's robes.

Faith level

In order to increase their faith level, the player will need to offer draconic bones at the burner. Specifically, only babydragon bones, dragon bones, lava dragon bones, and superior dragon bones offered at the burner will increase the player's faith level. For this purpose, lava dragon bones count as 2 and superior dragon bones count as 3.

Initially, if the player attempted to kill Olbertus, their faith level will act as though only a single bone has already been offered, meaning they will need to offer an additional 199 points worth of eligible bones at the burner to revert the Cursed Altar in the western part of the dungeon to a regular altar again; no Prayer experience will be granted for offerings until the curse is lifted. However, if the player gave Olbertus the five dragonstones instead, their faith level will act as if they had already offered 100 bones (indicated by the message The shrine is smooth to the touch. You faintly sense Ralos' power.).

Once a total of 200 points worth of eligible bones have been offered, the shrine will become hot to the touch and a temple key will appear for the player to take. This key can be used to permanently unlock the remaining gates in the dungeon. While the burner will still continue to provide increased Prayer experience, no more special effects occur in the dungeon for offerings made past this point.

Players can check their faith level via the "Check-Faith" option on the burner to get a rough indication of how many eligible bones have been offered. The message also displays any time they offer eligible bones.
